Sounds like someone may be rooting and flashing a custom rom soon My insight, wait til the official ICS launches for the 2011 Xperias. By that time, you SHOULD have stable ICS releases on your X10 mini.

I've been reading how to root the Mini/Pro and it looks like far too much effort for, potentially very little gain (my GF is upgrading to a different handset in January). Maybe once she's done with the phone I'll fuck with it then.

Do you like the phone itself? We've got 2 on the way. I bought 2 of them for $200 total, brand new. Thought it was a good deal, and I'm done with being held hostage for 2 years just to get a new phone free.

My GF liked it but it seems a rather temperamental phone; randomly turns off (mid call), the status bar/pull down will constantly flicker up & down. Even after updating it and factory restores. Personally I think she was ripped off, but it was the one she chose and wanted.

Hmm. Hopefully we will have a better experience. For $200 it was worth the risk, and there are plently of good reviews out there. So, we will see. I don't believe in buying expensive phones. They are too easily damaged, and I hate doing anything internet related on a small screen. I'll save my cash for real hardware.

Finally tried Launcher Pro today. DAmn, that thing lets you customize so much stuff. My favorite parts are being able to choose how many panels your screen is, and being able to remove (hide) apps from the app window.

LP is my home replacement of choice. Runs very smooth and lightweight.

Nah still on MIUI. Although its been giving me some real bad lag lately switching between apps. Getting calls and messages are fluid though, think it may be due to using a2sd instead of having apps placed in system.

Yup, about to do so myself. Looks very promising. His roms always been smooth for me until I go to tweak stuff that i want to mess with. Will probly just tweak a few things in rom toolbox and let it run. Not going to SBF right now.

My process is very simple. SBF back to Froyo 2.0, then SBF CWM, catch the reboot into recovery and install Motocache's root ZIP. From there choose a rom. For all members; We have OG Droids do not attempt this on any other phone with a locked bootloader or has Sense.
